- - The IlmBase parts Imath and half are now repackaged as Imath
- - The IlmThread and Iex libraries are now part of OpenEXR
- - Some header files were rearranged accordingly, into

-
- The libxkbcommon library (x11/libxkbcommon), used to handle keyboards
- in some applications, most notably kde and wayland, have been switched
- to use evdev rules by default on FreeBSD 12 and later. Some keys, most
- notably arrow keys, may not work in applications using libxkbcommon if
- you are using xf86-input-keyboard rather than xf86-input-libinput.
- If you have trouble with the keyboard keys, and if /var/log/Xorg.*.log
- shows that the "kbd" or "keyboard" driver is being used, you need to
- switch to legacy rules by setting the environment variable
- XKB_DEFAULT_RULES to xorg.
- This switch is made to match the default configuration on FreeBSD 12.1 and
- later, the default configuration on FreeBSD 11.3 still uses the legacy
- rules.

-
- If you experience issues when running OpenGL applications it is possible
- to force the use of DRI2 by setting the LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE environment

-
- 1. Apache / mod_php options removed
-
- The APACHEMOD option has been removed. LibreNMS can be used
- with other webservers, not just Apache. In order to simplify
- the port, the option was removed.
-
- Now you manually install the webserver of your preference.
-
- If upgrading from LibreNMS < 1.61, you can do this to
- prevent 'pkg autoremove' from uninstalling Apache / mod_php:
-
- $ sudo pkg set -A 0 apache24 mod_php74
- Mark apache24-2.4.41 as not automatically installed? [y/N]: y
- Mark mod_php74-7.4.3 as not automatically installed? [y/N]: y
-
- Adjust mod_php74 to suit the version of mod_php you have.
-
- 2. include/defaults.inc.php is gone
-
- The file include/defaults.inc.php is no longer distributed by
- the upstream project. The FreeBSD port patched this file to
- correct the paths to common tools such as ping, snmpwalk, etc.
-
- These values previously adjusted by the port must now be specified
- in config.php. New installs will have this automatically, but existing
- installs must be updated manually. These are the entries you should
- add if upgrading from LibreNMS < 1.61:

- any required data to another source before upgrading NetBox to v2.7.7, as
- any existing topology maps will be deleted.
-
-
- 2. Changed REDIS database configuration settings
-
- The REDIS database configuration parameters were splitted up in two
- discrete subsections named "webhooks" and "caching" with the 2.7 release.
- This requires modification of the REDIS parameter in configuration.py as
- follows:
-
- Old Redis sample configuration:
-
- REDIS = {
- 'HOST': 'localhost',
- 'PORT': 6379,
- 'PASSWORD': '',
- 'DATABASE': 0,
- 'CACHE_DATABASE': 1,
- 'DEFAULT_TIMEOUT': 300,
- 'SSL': False,
- }
-
- New Redis sample configuration:
-
- REDIS = {
- 'webhooks': {
- 'HOST': 'redis.example.com',
- 'PORT': 1234,
- 'PASSWORD': 'foobar',
- 'DATABASE': 0,
- 'DEFAULT_TIMEOUT': 300,
- 'SSL': False,
- },
- 'caching': {
- 'HOST': 'localhost',
- 'PORT': 6379,
- 'PASSWORD': '',
- 'DATABASE': 1,
- 'DEFAULT_TIMEOUT': 300,
- 'SSL': False,
- }
- }
-
- Note that the CACHE_DATABASE parameter has been removed and the connection
- settings have been duplicated for both webhooks and caching. This allows
- one to make use of separate Redis instances if desired. It is fine to use
- the same Redis service for both functions, although the database
- identifiers should be different.
-
- Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.

- done via "cert_reqs = 'CERT_REQUIRED'". While certificate verification
- can be disabled via "cert_reqs = 'CERT_NONE'", it's highly recommended to
- leave it on.
-
- Various consumers of net/py-urllib3 already have implemented routines that
- either explicitly enable or disable HTTPS certificate verification (e.g.
- via configuration settings, CLI arguments, etc.).
-
- Yet it may happen that there are still some consumers which don't
- explicitly enable/disable certificate verification for HTTPS connections
- which could then lead to errors (as is often the case with self-signed
- certificates).
-
- In case of an error one should try first to temporarily disable
- certificate verification of the problematic urllib3 consumer to see if
- this approach will remedy the issue.

- Make sure you upgrade your PostgreSQL to version 11 as described in 20190829,

- Gitlab-ce 12.1 needs at least PostgreSQL version 9.6.

- AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run
- AUTHOR: tz@FreeBSD.org
-
- The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 9.5 to 11.
- The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
- currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
- closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
- speedup of the upgrade.
-
- The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
- complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
-
- Upgrade instructions:
-
- First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
- If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 9.5.19, your
- files are named according to this.
-
- # service postgresql stop
- # pkg create postgresql95-server postgresql95-contrib
- # mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
- # tar xf postgresql95-server-9.5.19.txz -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
- # tar xf postgresql95-contrib-9.5.19.txz -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
- # pkg delete -f databases/postgresql95-server databases/postgresql95-contrib databases/postgresql95-client
-
- Now update PostgreSQL:
-
- pkg user:
- # pkg install databases/postgresql11-server databases/postgresql11-contrib
- # pkg upgrade
-
- Portmaster users:
- # portmaster databases/postgresql11-server databases/postgresql11-contrib
- # portmaster -a
-
- Portupgrade users:
- # portinstall databases/postgresql11-server databases/postgresql11-contrib
- # portupgrade -a
-
- After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
- all your databases to new version:
-
- # su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data11 -U pgsql"
- # chown -R postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data/
- # su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /usr/local/pgsql/data/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data11/ -U pgsql "
-
- Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
-
- # service postgresql start
-
- ATTENTION:
- 1) The default user changed from "pgsql" to "postgres". The migration steps above preserve
- the "pgsql" database user while the database daemon is now executed as the "postgres" FreeBSD user.
- 2) The default data dir changed from "/usr/local/pgsql/data/" to "/var/db/postgres/data11/"
- 3) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

- CentOS 6 packages, like c6_64 before, and support for c6_64 has been
- removed.

- obtained with the following command:
+ 1. Stop existing process:
- pkg info -r linux_base-c6
+ # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/soft-serve stop

+ 2. Run the rc.d script to migrate, e.g.
- Users of x11/nvidia-driver* should upgrade to FreeBSD 11.3 or 12.0 if
- they want to run Linux amd64 OpenGL programs. If you are running an
- older version you may want to postpone installing or updating Linux
- application ports until you find the time to upgrade because application
- ports may install amd64 binaries now. Infrastructure ports are safe to
- reinstall, and so is x11/nvidia-driver*.

- If you used Samba in AD/DC mode with the previous versions of the port on UFS2
- backed storage you have to add usage of vfs_freebsd VFS module for at least
- SYSVOL share and configure it to use 'legacy' mode(see manpage).

+ compatible with Netbox 3.4. For further details please see the
+ updating instructions of py-netbox-secretstore or the UPDATING entry

- The reason behind this is that previous versions Samba port used a hack to
- workaround broken mapping of Linux security and trusted extended attributes
- into FreeBSD namespace. In particular, essential security.NTACL attribute
- was replaced with the user.NTACL and placed in a insecure USER namespace.

- To maintain the compatibility with the previous installations on UFS2 storage
- (as ZFS uses it's own way of mapping SYSVOL, thanks to the iXsystems patches)
- the vfs_freebsd module provides 'legacy' mode that implements old functionality.
+ The netdisco user now needs a HOME and a shell.
+ For existing installs you will need to set
+ HOME to /usr/local/etc/netdisco and shell to /bin/sh.
- For the fresh installations it is recommended to use 'secure' mode of operations
- for this module and use it as a global vfs objects.
+ For example in one shell line:
+ pw user mod netdisco -d /usr/local/etc/netdisco -s /bin/sh

+ AUTHOR: se@FreeBSD.org
- With the release of Emacs version 26.1, the major version of editors/emacs
- changed from 25 to 26, so the names of packages that depend on Emacs have also
- changed. For example, pdf-tools-emacs25-0.80.79_1 is now called
- pdf-tools-emacs26-0.80.79_1. The name change means simply running `pkg
- upgrade` will not upgrade foo-emacs25-x to foo-emacs26-x.
+ The xorg-server port now has a library dependency on x11/libxcvt,
+ which cannot be installed when the previous version of xorg-server
+ is present. To be able to update xorg-server from a port, the

- AUTHOR: groot@kde.org
-
- Calligra has been updated to 3.0.1, which is a KDE Frameworks 5 (KF5)
- based application. Calligra now uses Qt5 and KF5. The translations have
- been merged (upstream) into the application, so separate language /
- translation ports are no longer provided. Krita has been split out
- (upstream) into a separate application, which is packaged as
- graphics/krita. Kexi, the visual database applications creator,
- is packaged separately as databases/kexi.
-
- Users of Calligra are encouraged to install Krita and Kexi separately,
- and to report issues with the upgrade to kde@.

- AFFECTS: users of Qt 5 in presence of binutils
- AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org
-
- gold linker from binutils 2.28 may produce duplicate library
- symbols, which makes shared libraries created with it not usable
- with conventional ld linker.
-
- This affects Qt, as qt5-qmake will detect gold and use it to build
- Qt libraries. Broken libQt5Core will be produced and ports which
- depend on it will then fail to link with the following errors:
-
- ...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): multiple definition of `__bss_start at Qt_5'
- ...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): first defined here
- ...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): multiple definition of `_edata at Qt_5'
- ...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x27ac8): first defined here
- ...lib/libQt5Core.so:(.dynamic+0x2b2d0): multiple definition of `_end at Qt_5'
-
- Qt5 was fixed to ignore gold. If you see these errors, you
- need to rebuild qt5-qmake, then all qt5-* ports.

-
- After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the

- versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
- list of dependent software by running the following command:
-
- # pkg info -r libressl
-
- Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling

- New version of Samba port from 4.6 branch is added. Before upgrading please read upgrade notes:
-
- https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.6.0.html
-
- For the vfs_fruit users:
-
- Users on *BSD must rename the metadata xattr used by vfs_fruit when
- using the default setting "fruit:metadata = netatalk".
-
- Due to a glitch in the Samba xattr API compatibility layer for FreeBSD and a
- mistake in vfs_fruit, vfs_fruit ended up using the wrong xattr name when
- configured with "fruit:metadata = netatalk" (default). Instead of the correct
-
- org.netatalk.Metadata
-
- it used
-
- netatalk.Metadata
-
- Starting with Samba 4.6 vfs_fruit will use the correct "org.netatalk.Metadata"
- which means existing installations must rename this xattrs. For this purpose
- Samba now includes a new tool `mvxattr`.

- AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
-
- Following what is already done in Qt 5, the Qt 4 ports no longer install

- cases). Additionally, the "-qt4" suffix has been dropped from the file names
- of the binaries that had it, such as "qmake-qt4".
-
- The new misc/qtchooser port is now used to choose whether a Qt 4 or Qt 5
- version of a binary such as "moc", "qmake" or "designer" will be used. By
- default, the Qt 5 versions are preferred, but that can be changed by setting
- the QT_SELECT environment variable to "qt4".
-
- qtchooser also allows one to seamlessly use other Qt installations for those
- binaries, which is particularly beneficial to people working on Qt itself or
- who need their own checkouts.

- AUTHOR: rezny@FreeBSD.org
-
- Xorg server has been updated to 1.18.4 and autodetection has changed.
- The order in which drivers are now attempted is:
- 1) vendor/model specific driver according to PCI IDs
- 2) generic modesetting driver which requires a drm driver with KMS
- 3) scfb, the generic framebuffer driver
- 4) vesa (only if arch is x86)
-
- This should minimize the need for xorg.conf files. It is recommended to
- load the correct KMS driver (i915kms.ko or radeonkms.ko) via rc.conf,
- i.e. kld_list="i915kms.ko", to ensure correct functionality. Although
- the vendor drivers may attempt to load the correct drm driver, which
- does not always work, the modesetting driver assumes the required KMS
- driver is already loaded and will fail if there is none. The modesetting
- driver is now recommended as an alternative to the Intel driver; the
- performance is comparable and stability is better with modesetting. The
- ATI driver continues to offer better performance than modesetting.

-
- Further, if you use motion with multiple cameras and have

- /usr/local/etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/
- /usr/local/etc/bareos/bareos-fd.d/
- /usr/local/etc/bareos/bareos-sd.d/

- AFFECTS: users of security/heimdal
- AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
-
- Heimdal in the base system and security/heimdal <= 1.5.3_6 use
- Berkeley DB to store principals into /var/heimdal/heimdal.db and
- the database format is version 3 by default. On the other hand,
- security/heimdal 1.5.3_7 or newer use the newer version of
- Berkeley DB and the database format is version 9.
- These two versions are not compatible with each other. If there is
- a mismatch between Heimdal utilities and its database format,
- you will get an error like the following:
-
- # /usr/local/sbin/kadmin -l dump
- BDB0641 __db_meta_setup: /var/heimdal/heimdal.db: unexpected file type or format
- kadmin: hdb_open: opening /var/heimdal/heimdal: Invalid argument
-
- This mismatch can occur in the following three cases:
-
- 1. You used Heimdal in the base system and switch to use security/heimdal
- after creating /var/db/heimdal.db.
-
- 2. You used security/heimdal >= 1.5.3_7 and switch to use one in the
- base system.
-
- 3. You used security/heimdal < 1.5.3_7 and upgrade it to 1.5.3_7 or later.
-
- To fix this mismatch, you need to dump contents of heimdal.db and
- rebuild the database by using kadmin(8) utility.
-
- If you use Heimdal in the base system or older versions of
- security/heimdal, and plan to switch to use
- security/heimdal >= 1.5.3_7, execute the following command
- *after* creating a backup copy of /var/heimdal and installing
- security/heimdal:
-
- # /usr/bin/kadmin -l dump /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.dump
- # rm /var/heimdal/heimdal.db
- # /usr/local/sbin/kadmin -l load /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.dump
- # rm /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.dump
-
- The above example assumes security/heimdal is installed into
- /usr/local. If your base system is compiled with WITHOUT_KERBEROS
- use the following instead:
-
- # db_dump185-5 /var/heimdal/heimdal.db | db_load-5 /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.new
- # chown 0600 /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.new
- # mv /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.new /var/heimdal/heimdal.db
-
- db_dump and db_load utilitites are installed by databases/db5 as
- dependency of security/heimdal.
-
- If you want to switch from security/heimdal to Heimdal in the base
- system, use the following:
-
- # /usr/local/sbin/kadmin -l dump /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.dump
- # rm /var/heimdal/heimdal.db
- # /usr/bin/kadmin -l load /var/heimdal/heimdal.db.dump

- AFFECTS: users of security/sshguard
- AUTHOR: feld@FreeBSD.org
-
- Sshguard has been updated to 1.7.0. There have been several changes to
- this release. Notably the hosts and ipfilter backends are no longer
- supported. If you need these backends to be supported and you missed
- the survey sent out by upstream I urge you to contact upstream.
-
- The hosts backend was previously served by security/sshguard directly.
- The additional backends were slave ports with package name suffixes. I
- have opted to keep the master/slave port relationship but not choose a
- specific backend for security/sshguard. Instead it is now a metaport
- which will prompt you for which backend you prefer. If no backend is
- configured it will depend on security/sshguard-ipfw, which is the
- native FreeBSD firewall. This my be surprising to users who depended
- on security/sshguard which only provided hosts/TCP Wrappers blocking,
- but there is no replacement at this time.
-
- I would also like to document that sshguard no longer accepts the -e
- argument which allowed external scripts to run when sshguard finds a
- match. As a result the null backend can no longer be used to create
- custom blocking functionality; it only serves as a detection backend.
-
- If the removed backends return due to user demand they will be added
- as slave ports for consistency. I apologize for any inconvenience and
- lack of notice on the deprecation of these features.

- AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresqlNN-server with ICU patch
- AUTHOR: girgen@FreeBSD.org
-
- The ICU patch is added to the PostgreSQL-9.5 server. Please note that you
- must never change between using the ICU patch and using system locale for
- the same database cluster without REINDEXing all TEXT/VARCHAR columns, or
- dump and restore your database. Failing to do so will result in corrupted
- indexes due to the differences between the locale definitions. ICU will
- always be the better choice for speed and correctness.
-
- Also, the ICU patch used to support other Unicode encodings than UTF-8,
- but that has been removed due to lack of demand and the complicated testing
- required. If you use another Unicode encoding and rely on ICU for collation,
- please refrain from upgrading the postgresql server and instead contact the
- author named above.

- AUTHOR: mandree@FreeBSD.org
-
- The databases/db6 port has been updated to release 6.2.23.
-
- This requires manual action in two places:
- 1. dependent applications need to be recompiled,
- 2. SQL databases, if any, need to be reindexed.
-
- To obtain a list of ports needing a recompilation,
- the following command should provide it:
-
- # pkg info -r db6
-
- Then rebuild db6 and the dependent ports. For pkg users, this should
- be transparent.
+ ATTENTION:
+ 1) The default user changed from "pgsql" to "postgres" in 11. The migration steps above now assume
+ the "postgres" database user and FreeBSD user.
+ 2) See the updating entry 20190829 if you are updating from a release prior to 11.
+ 3) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly
- Portmaster users:
- # portmaster -r databases/db6
- Portupgrade users:
- # portupgrade -fr databases/db6
-
- In order to reindex SQL databases, a db6-upgrade61.sh script is
- provided in ${PREFIX}/bin, if and only if the port's SQL option is
- enabled. For detailed reindexing instructions, see
- http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17076_05/html/installation/sqlite_ver61.html

- AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org
-
- Binary package users can ignore this.
-
- The way lang/perl5* ports install themselves has changed. From now on, only
- the default Perl port (currently 5.20), or the version listed in
- DEFAULT_VERSIONS, will install /usr/local/bin/perl.
-
- If you are NOT using the default version of Perl (as of right now, it is
- 5.20) you MUST add a line setting the version you are using to your
- /etc/make.conf, to preserve /usr/local/bin/perl:
-
- DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= perl5=5.xx
-
- If your Perl package name is not called perl5-5.xx.y but perl5.xx-5.xx.y,
- you will need to rename it so that portupgrade and portmaster do not get
- confused:
-
- pkg set -n perl5.xx:perl5
-
- After this date, to migrate from one Perl version to the other, you must
- first put the DEFAULT_VERSIONS line in your make.conf, and then, for example,
- if you want to move from 5.20 to 5.22, do:
-
- pkg set -o lang/perl5.20:lang/perl5.22
- portmaster `pkg shlib -qR libperl.so.5.20`
-
- If you do not do that, you will replace your default Perl 5.20 installation
- (one that has /usr/local/bin/perl) with an installation that does not have
- /usr/local/bin/perl, and it will break everything.

- print/ghostscript{7,8,9,9-agpl}-{base,x11}.
- print/ghostscript*-nox11 ports have been removed.
-
- The -base installs Ghostscript binaries, libgs, and other data files
- and it depends on no X11 library. The -x11 installs a small shared
- library to enable x11* devices in the installed -base package.
-
- In most cases, Ghostscript is installed as a dependency. A port/package
- which requires Ghostscript will automatically pick up -base, and
- when x11* devices required it will pick up -x11 in addition.
-
- If one wants to install Ghostscript manually and full compatibility
- with the previous versions, just install -x11 because it installs
- -base as a dependency. Combination of the two provides the same
- functionality as before.

- to be removed from the default asterisk13 port configuration,
- otherwise a not working binary would be generated.
-
- To get SRTP support working in the asterisk ports make sure all
- dependencies are linked against the same SSL library implementation
- to avoid runtime conflicts. On 10.1 everything will work fine
- unless ports SSL libraries are explicitly installed. On older OS
- versions(10.0 and earlier) you will need to compile all ports
- with WITH_OPENSSL_PORT=yes.
-
- To get working SRTP support in asterisk13 with the pjsip backend
- it is also needed to enable the EXTSRTP option in the pjsip port.
-
- If the CURL option is enabled also make sure the ftp/curl port
- is using a GSSAPI implementation linking to the same SSL
- implementation the other ports are using (BASE or NONE if you're
- using base OpenSSL, GSSAPI_HEIMDAL GSSAPI_MIT otherwise). If an

- AFFECTS: users of www/thttpd
- AUTHOR: danfe@FreeBSD.org
-
- thttpd was updated to version 2.26, which brings several user-noticeable
- changes to the port:
-
- - Default WWW root was changed from ${PREFIX}/www/data to more expected
- (and standard) ${WWWDIR} (${PREFIX}/www/thttpd), be sure to check and
- adjust your thttpd configuration file and/or web layout accordingly;
- - Default CGI pattern was changed to "/cgi-bin/*"; this goes better in
- line with default installation;
- - Default data MIME type was changed to "application/octet-stream";
- - thttpd's own htpasswd(1) program, which was previously installed as
- thttpdpasswd(1) to avoid conflict with other webservers, is now being
- renamed to thtpasswd(1); this not just makes it shorter, but is more
- consistent with popular GNU/Linux distributions;
- - Index pages for directories are not generated by default from now on
- for security reasons; an option (INDEXES) is provided to turn them
- back on if they are wanted;
- - IPREAL option (to respect (pass on) "X-Forwarded-For" header) is now
- turned on by default: it is often required when thttpd is used as a
- CGI server behind nginx (http://wiki.nginx.org/ThttpdCGI).

- The CentOS ports infrastructure has replaced Fedora 10 as default.
-
- 1. Please delete all remaining f10 ports/packages:
-
- # pkg delete -f linux_base-f10 linux-f10-\*
-
- 2. Persistently update the Linux kernel version in /etc/sysctl.conf:
-
- compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18
-
- This step is necessary on all FreeBSD versions, apart from 11.0-CURRENT
- (after revision 271982).
-
- 3. Reinstall all software depending on Linux emulation.
- As an example, reinstall linux-firefox:
-
- # portmaster -r linux-firefox
- or
- # portupgrade -f www/linux-firefox
- or
- # pkg install linux-firefox
-
- If difficulties are encountered, please follow the UPDATING entry 20140922
- but skip step 2 (OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT and OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS
- in /etc/make.conf). In case these steps do not fix the issues, please submit
- an issue report in Bugzilla and send an email to FreeBSD's emulation@ mailing
- list.
-
- Users who need to continue using Fedora 10 base and userland should do the
- following instead:
-
- 1. Add these lines to /etc/make.conf:
-
- OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f10
- OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f10
-
- 2. Downgrade the Linux kernel version in /etc/sysctl.conf on FreeBSD versions
- newer than and including 11.0-CURRENT (after revision 271982).
-
- compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16
-
- This is all that is needed to continue using an existing Fedora 10 Linux base
- and userland.

-
- Users compiling from ports not interested in LUA support are advised
- to disable the option before updating.

- People using binary packages(or not wanting to disable the LUA
- option in the port) not using the Lua functionality should add:
-
- noload => pbx_lua.so
-
- to the PREFIX/etc/asterisk/modules.conf file, if using the
- autoload=yes option in that same file. People not autoloading
- modules don't need to perform any special action.

- AFFECTS: users seeing build errors about missing *.la files
- AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org
+ math/eigen3 has had its options re-vamped. The default options previously
+ pulled in multiple useless library dependencies. The options also forced
+ a specific BLAS implementation. The new options depend only on the
+ default BLAS (whatever USES=blaslapack picks), but this can be turned
+ off. The previous multiple useless libraries -- which are not useless
+ when running the tests in Eigen -- are now hidden behind the default-off
+ TEST option.
- We are in the process of adjusting or, if possible, removing libtool archives
- (*.la files) from all ports because they can otherwise cause overlinking
- between packages. This is the problem where in the dependency chain A->B->C
- an extra link is added from A to C even if A does not use C directly. This
- makes some updates to port C expensive because then both A and B have to be
- rebuilt instead of just B.
-
- This is mostly behind the scenes work that you won't notice. In fact most
- ports have already been converted. You may however run into build errors
- about missing *.la files if a port update in the past went wrong and left
- behind *.la files with references to other *.la files that are no longer
- there. In this case, please run the following command:
-
- find /usr/local/lib -name '*.la' | xargs grep -l 'libfoo\.la' | xargs pkg which
- (Replace libfoo\.la with the *.la file that is missing.)
-
- This command will print a list of *.la files that refer to the missing *.la
- file and what package they belong to. First, where it says "not found in
- the database", remove the *.la file. After removing all such files, where
- it says "installed by package X", rebuild X. Eventually the list printed by
- that command will be empty and the build error should be gone.

- <https://wiki.freebsd.org/Ports/BerkeleyDBCleanup>.
-
- The older databases/db4* ports providing versions 4.0 to 4.7
- inclusively have been removed, and 4.8 has been deprecated.
- The default Berkeley DB version is now 5.3.
- (6.x has a different license, but will be eligible as default on
- systems that build ports from source and have db6 installed.)
- All enabled and working ports have been changed such that they use
- Berkeley DB 4.8 or newer, and an -exp run has been made.

- After you have performed the first steps from the Wiki documentation,
- and have arrived at a step that reads "build all applications", then
- type as privileged user and without the hash sign:
-
- # Tools/scripts/BDB-upgrade-helper.sh

-
- It is no longer possible to specify the location of the gpg binary at
- buildtime to differentiate between version 1.x and version 2.x. The port

- instead of option MOD_DAV_SVN.
- security/subversion-gnome-keyring
- instead of option GNOME_KEYRING.
- security/subversion-kwallet
- instead of option KDE_KWALLET.
-
- If you used devel/subversion with one (or more) of these non-standard
- options, you should install the appropriate port(s) after upgrading
- subversion.
-
- "mod_dontdothat" is installed unconditionally by www/mod_dav_svn port (it
- depended on the TOOLS option before), but is not activated by default, you
- may need to edit apache's configuration file.
-
- The devel/subversion port now installs svndiff, svndiff3 and svndiff4
- commands if TOOLS option is enabled. They was skipped before.
- The official names "diff", "diff3" and "diff4" are prefixed with "svn" to
- avoid conflicts with base and other diff versions.
-
- All libraries and binaries are now stripped if the MAINTAINER_DEBUG
- option is not selected (including all sub-ports, like bindings
- and mod_dav_svn).

-
- To upgrade graphics/libGL, graphics/dri and related MESA ports, it is
- necessary to first remove the old versions of those ports.
- No special upgrade procedure is needed for xorg ports but it is
- necessary to recompile all xorg drivers (xf86-*) and other ports that
- depend on the xserver version, including
- emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions. Portrevisions have been bumped
- where needed, but users of drivers not in the ports tree will need to
- recompile those.
-
- If it is important to stay on the old versions, it is possible to
- specify WITHOUT_NEW_XORG= in /etc/make.conf to get the old xorg
- distribution.
-
- For users in need of working console when using KMS drivers (intel and

-
- NOTE: after r341775 (committed on January 29, 2014) and other

- # pkg info pkg
-
- It's possible that you may have tested pkgng in the past, ran pkg2ng, and

- uninstall pkg with pkg_info/pkg_delete and also remove the stale database,
- rm /var/db/pkg/local.sqlite.

- AUTHOR: swills@FreeBSD.org
-
- The default ruby version has been updated from 1.8 to 1.9. First, stop any
- software that uses ruby. Then, you'll need to rebuild all ports that depend
- on ruby:
-
- If you use portmaster:
- # portmaster -o lang/ruby19 lang/ruby18
- # portmaster -R -r ruby-1.9
-
- If you use portupgrade:
- # portupgrade -f lang/ruby18
- # portupgrade -f lang/ruby19 # if you have it installed
- # portupgrade -f ports-mgmt/portupgrade
- # portupgrade -x ruby-1.8.\* -fr lang/ruby18
-
- After these steps are complete, you can pkg_delete ruby 1.8 if you
- no longer need it.
-
- If you use pkgng:
- # pkg set -o lang/ruby18:lang/ruby19
- # pkg install -fR lang/ruby19
-
- If you wish to keep the 1.8 version as default, add the following lines
- to your /etc/make.conf file:
-
- #
- # Keep ruby 1.8 as default version.

- AUTHOR: tj@FreeBSD.org
-
- This is the first stable release based on Lucene 4. We recommend testing
- the upgrade before doing it in production.
-
- Upgrading from 0.20 requires a full cluster restart.
-
- In order to be able to downgrade, stop indexing new data, issue a flush
- request, do the upgrade and only enable indexing of new data once you
- are certain that you no longer need to downgrade. Once new data has
- been indexed, downgrading is no longer possible. To be extra safe, back

- AFFECTS: users of devel/hs-git-annex
- AUTHOR: haskell@FreeBSD.org
-
- On FreeBSD, git-annex incorrectly calculated SHA256 hashes for files
- added to the annex repository due to the BSD-style output of
- /sbin/sha256. The result of this is silent data corruption.
-
- This problem has been fixed, but every file stored in an annex
- repository will fail a `git-annex fsck` after the upgrade. Thus,
- before updating, it is wise to issue the command below and restore the
- files.
-
- $ git-annex uninit
-
- Corruptions can then be found by finding all files with the same hash.
- Note that only files that were mishashed to the same location are a
- problem.

- TeXLive ports have been imported. Although most of ports still depend

-
- The directory layout of them is as follows. Please use print/texlive-full
- if you are not familiar with how each component works. Finer-grained
- ports will be added (specifically, meta ports for smaller installation
- and so on). Note that the full installation needs around 3GB of disk space.
-
- teTeX-based ports and TeXLive are mutually exclusive. This means TeXLive
- ports cannot be installed when teTeX is already installed. You need
- to remove all of the TeX-related packages based on teTeX to try TeXLive.
- Migration procedure will be announced when conversion of the port
- dependency is completed.

- The lighttpd startup script has been changed and is now compatible to the
- apache startup script. The "reload" subcommand now sends a SIGHUP to the
- process and triggers cycling of log files. The new command "graceful"
- performs a graceful restart (similar to former "reload") and "gracefulstop"
- performs a graceful stop. The "check" command has been replaced with

- AFFECTS: users of databases/akonadi
- AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
-
- The latest Akonadi update includes critical bug fixes. Manual
- intervention is required for people using local MySQL database (the
- default configuration) as backend:
-
- $ akonadictl stop
-
- Wait a bit, and make sure that akonadiserver and akonadi_control are
- not running. Kill them if needed. Then, you have two alternatives:
-
- $ mysql_install_db --force \
- --defaults-file=~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf \
- --datadir=~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data \
- --basedir=$(dirname `dirname $(which mysql_install_db)`)
- $ rm ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf
-
- ...or...
-
- $ rm -r ~/.local/share/akonadi
-
- In the latter case, Akonadi will have to recache your personal data
- (might take a while). Akonadi is only a cache, no data will be lost.
- Then:
-
- $ akonadictl start

- From the upstream RELEASE_NOTES:
-
- Instead of terminating immediately with a "fatal" message when a
- database file can't be opened, a Postfix daemon program now logs
- an "error" message, and continues execution with reduced
- functionality.
-
- Specify "daemon_table_open_error_is_fatal = yes" to get the
- historical behavior (immediate termination with "fatal" message).
-
- Logfile-based alerting systems may need to be updated to look for
- "error" messages in addition to "fatal" messages.
-
- By default the Postfix SMTP server no longer reports transcripts
- of sessions where a client command is rejected because a table is
- unavailable. To receive such reports, add the new "data" class to
- the notify_classes parameter value. The reports will be sent to the
- error_notice_recipient address as before. This class is also used
- by the Postfix SMTP client to report about sessions that fail
- because a table is unavailable.

- If you have - or plan to install - net/kdenetwork4, also run:
-
- # portmaster -o net/linphone-base ortp
-
- Finally:
-
- # portmaster -a
-
- Also, remove /usr/local/kde4/etc/rc.d from local_startup in rc.conf(5).
- Failure to do this will cause all enabled scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
- to be started twice.
-
- Remember to check for missing ports, bearing in mind that x11/kdebase4*
- ports were replaced by x11/kde4-* ones, ktts was replaced by jovie, while
- konq-plugins-kde4 and nepomukcontroller were removed. Then:
-
- # portmaster --check-depends
-
- You're also encouraged to run `pkg_cutleaves` or similar to check for
- orphaned ports.
-
- Please, note that `pkg_add -r kde4` will not install Plasma scriptengines
- and printer utilities by default anymore, and `pkg_add -r kdegames4` will
- not install Kajongg. This was made to avoid depending by default on
- kdebindings.

- AUTHOR: Ion-Mihai Tetcu <itetcu@FreeBSD.org>
-
- All skype ports were moved to net-im/:
- - skype12: unchanged, very old version (for FreeBSD 6)
- - skype20: last version with OSS support, that used to live in net/skype; the
- DISTFILE is gone from the vendor but if you happen to have it, it would be a
- way of having sound w/o needing to upgrade your base OS
- - [RECOMMENDED] skype: currently at 2.1.0.81 and the best supported
- - skype-devel: currently at 2.2.0.25, sounds is OK, video doesn't work
-
- To run either skype or skype-devel with fully working sound you need:
- - to run fc10 (most probably, please report what you can do with fc4):
- (OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f10,OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f10
- in /etc/make.conf for systems that doesn't have it as default)
- - In order for Skype to work OK, you need your kernel and modules to be:
- - post 2011-05-03 in on HEAD
- - post 2011-05-08 in on 7,8-STABLE
- The port tries to catch if your system version is too old, but there's a
- ~3months window where because of a lack of OSVERSION bump, this is not
- possible. So please check; and PLEASE READ THE PKGMESSAGE for setup details.
- For how to update your kernel/world, see:
- http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
-
- IF YOUR OSVERSION IS NOT NEW ENOUGH, SOUND (ESPECIALLY MIC) WON'T WORK.
-
- If you run into problems, at very least we need to know the output of:
- $ uname -a; sysctl compat.linux | head -2; \
- grep OVERRIDE_LINUX_ /etc/make.conf; \
- cat /compat/linux/etc/alsa/pcm/pcm-oss.conf
- the skype version you are using and hardware details (eg. webcam, if related)
- I most probably will ignore any mail not containing this info since without
- it it's impossible to help.
- Please test your sound /video setup outside skype before blaming skype /
- mailing me.

- AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and py-*
- AUTHOR: miwi@FreeBSD.org
-
- The default version of Python has been changed from 2.6.x to 2.7.x.
- If you have 2.6.x installed, perform an upgrade of lang/python26 to
- lang/python27 with one of the following commands:
-
- If using portupgrade:
- # portupgrade -o lang/python27 lang/python26
-
- If using portmaster:
- # portmaster -o lang/python27 lang/python26
-
- If you want to retain 2.6.x as default Python version, set the
- PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION variable to 'python2.6' (without quotes) in
- /etc/make.conf, then go to lang/python and perform the following
- command:
-
- # portupgrade -R python
-
- Once the installed Python has been updated to 2.7, by using the
- method above, it is required to run the upgrade-site-packages target in
- lang/python to assure that site-packages are made available to the new
- Python version.
-
- If using portupgrade:
- # cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
-
- If using portmaster:
- # cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages -DUSE_PORTMASTER
-
- The portmaster case can take quite some time to complete due to the lack of
- cached information that the portupgrade suite uses (specifically pkg_which).
- This is not the fault of portmaster.

-
- If you upgrade from Postfix 2.6 or earlier, you must execute "postfix
- stop" and "postfix start" before you can use the postscreen(8) daemon.
- This is needed because the Postfix 2.6 "pass" master service type did
- not work reliably on some systems. If you upgrade from Postfix 2.7, or
- from Postfix 2.8 before July 25, 2010, you must "postfix reload" (or
- "postfix stop" followed by "postfix start"). This is needed because
- the queue manager to delivery agent protocol has changed.

-
- [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY is no longer
- optional and is forced on. This is mitigated by the new build
- option TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST which defines a list of configuration
- files which are trusted; one per line. If a config file is owned
- by root and matches a pathname in the list, then it may be invoked
- by the Exim build-time user without Exim relinquishing root
- privileges.
-
- [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] The Exim user is no longer automatically
- trusted to supply -D<Macro[=Value]> overrides on the command-line.
- Going forward, we recommend using TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST with shim
- configs that include the main config. As a transition mechanism,
- we are temporarily providing a work-around: the new build option
- WHITELIST_D_MACROS provides a colon-separated list of macro names
- which may be overriden by the Exim run-time user. The values of
- these macros are constrained to the regex ^[A-Za-z0-9_/.-]*$
- (which explicitly does allow for empty values).

- Incompatibility with snapshot 20100912
- ======================================
- - If your DNSBL queries have a "secret" in the domain name, you must
- now censor this information from the postscreen(8) SMTP replies.
- - The postscreen "continue" action is now called "ignore". The old
- name is still supported but no longer documented.
- - The postscreen_hangup_action parameter was removed. Postscreen
- now always behaves as if "postscreen_hangup_action = drop".
- - The postscreen_cache_retention_time default was increased from
- 1d to 7d, to avoid deleting results from expensive deep SMTP
- protocol tests too quickly.
-
- Incompatibility with snapshot 20100827
- ======================================
- - The Postfix SMTP client no longer appends the local domain when
- looking up a DNS name without ".".
- Specify "smtp_dns_resolver_options = res_defnames" to get the old
- behavior, which may produce unexpected results.

- AUTHOR: glarkin@FreeBSD.org
-
- The nullmailer port was recently updated with an rc.d script to correctly
- daemonize nullmailer-send with daemon(8). On FreeBSD 6.X, daemon(8) does
- not support "[-u user]" command-line switch, causing the nullmailer rc.d
- script failure to start nullmailer-send.
-
- Support for "[-u user]" command-line switch was recently MFC'd to 6-STABLE
- (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/146266). FreeBSD 6.X users
- should patch and install daemon(8) by one of the methods described below.
-
- If /usr/src is not yet populated, csup the 6-STABLE sources and run these
- commands:
-
- cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/daemon
- make install
- /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nullmailer start
-
- If /usr/src is already populated with sources from a previous 6.X release,
- use these commands:
-
- cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/daemon
- fetch 'http://people.freebsd.org/~glarkin/pr-links/daemon/patch-daemon.c'
- fetch 'http://people.freebsd.org/~glarkin/pr-links/daemon/patch-daemon.8'

- pid_filename from $PREFIX/squid/logs/squid.pid to /var/squid/logs/squid.pid
- coredump_dir from $PREFIX/squid/cache to /var/squid/cache
-
- Please check whether you need to define any of these variables in your
- squid.conf to the old defaults explicitly before updating, especially if
- you have set up automated log processing or automated log rotation. If you
- define pid_filename in your squid.conf, you should also set squid_pidfile

-
- The www/firefox port has been updated to 3.6. From now on www/firefox
- will contain the most recent version of Firefox. Older but still
- supported releases will be available in www/firefox3 and www/firefox35.
-
- In order to update to Firefox 3.6 please delete your older installed

- make sure all your addons are compatible with Firefox 3.6 and backup
- your ~/.mozilla directory prior to the first launch of Firefox 3.6.
-
- Note that in order to use Java with Firefox 3.6, you need to install
- java/openjdk6, build it with the "WEB" option enabled and use the Iced
- Tea plugin. To achieve the latter, each user needs to create a
- symlink to the Icedtea plugin as described in the Browsers/Firefox and

- AFFECTS: users of Qt 3 and KDE 3
- AUTHOR: itetcu@FreeBSD.org
-
- When building qt33 and kdelibs3 (at least), while they are installed,
- because of -L/usr/local/lib being passed too soon, the currently installed
- libraries are used instead of the ones from the build. This makes the
- build fail if you updated any of the libraries these Qt/KDE libraries are
- linked against (e.g. libjpeg).
-
- For the moment the workaround, when you get to this, is to move the old lib
- out of the way, e.g.:
-
- mv /usr/local/lib/libqt-mt.so /usr/local/lib/libqt-mt.so.old && \
- cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/qt33/ && make && \

- AFFECTS: users of net/samba34
- AUTHOR: timur@FreeBSD.org
-
- This port was developed with the generous help of Florent Brodin.
-
- The default passdb backend has been changed to `tdbsam'! That breaks

- to stick to the `smbpasswd' backend or convert your smbpasswd entries
- using e.g. `pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam'.
-
- The `tdbsam' backend is much more flexible concerning per user
- settings like `profile path' or `home directory' and there are some

- AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/zabbix, net-mgmt/zabbix-agent
- AUTHOR: Jim Riggs <ports@christianserving.org>
-
- In order to simplify configuration and better separate the different
- components of Zabbix, the former zabbix port has been split into three:
- zabbix-server, zabbix-proxy, and zabbix-frontend. Each component has
- distinct functionality and may be installed independently on separate
- systems. The existing zabbix-agent port remains.
-
- Additionally, the new zabbix-frontend port now (correctly) installs the
- PHP frontend in PREFIX/www/zabbix. The old zabbix port installed the
- files in PREFIX/share/zabbix/php. Web server configurations must be
- updated accordingly.
-
- Finally, Zabbix has been updated to version 1.8. Not everyone may be
- able to upgrade from version 1.6 immediately, though, so 1.6.8 versions
- of the ports are also available as zabbix16-server, zabbix16-proxy,
- zabbix16-agent, and zabbix16-frontend.
-
-20091206:
- AFFECTS: users of emulators/qemu
- AUTHOR: nox@FreeBSD.org
-
- The port has been updated to 0.11.1, which no longer enables kqemu by
- default (if built with KQEMU knob on), now you also have to explicitly
- pass -enable-kqemu (or -kernel-kqemu as with the previous versions)
- if you want to use it. Also note the 0.11 stable branch is the last
- qemu branch that still supports kqemu, so if you depend on reasonably
- fast emulation on FreeBSD you should start looking for alternatives
- some time soon. (VirtualBox?)

- AFFECTS: users of www/redmine
- AUTHOR: Bernhard Froehlich <decke@bluelife.at>
-
- After the upgrade you need to generate a session secret before restarting

- AFFECTS: users of emulators/win4bsd
- AUTHOR: Mario S F Ferreira <lioux@FreeBSD.org>
-
- The new port now depends on emulators/kqemu-kmod instead of installing

- hudson_* variables in rc.conf. See comments from rc.d script for further
- details.
-
- The default setup is using the same port numbers and HTTP URL prefix as
- before in order to reduce the effort of upgrading the port. Hence, it
- may conflict with some running Apache Tomcat instance. To fix this

- AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and py-*
- AUTHOR: miwi@FreeBSD.org
-
- The default version of Python has been changed from 2.5.x to 2.6.x.
- If you have 2.5.x installed, perform an upgrade of lang/python25 to
- lang/python26 with one of the following commands:
-
- If using portupgrade:
- # portupgrade -o lang/python26 lang/python25
-
- If using portmaster:
- # portmaster -o lang/python26 lang/python25
-
- If you want to retain 2.5.x as default Python version, set the
- PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION variable to 'python2.5' (without quotes) in
- /etc/make.conf, then go to lang/python and perform the following
- command:
-
- # portupgrade -R python
-
- Once the installed Python has been updated to 2.6, by using the
- method above, it is required to run the upgrade-site-packages target in
- lang/python to assure that site-packages are made available to the new
- Python version.
-
- If using portupgrade:
- # cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
-
- If using portmaster:
- # cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages -DUSE_PORTMASTER
-
- The portmaster case can take quite some time to complete due to the lack of
- cached information that the portupgrade suite uses (specifically pkg_which).
- This is not the fault of portmaster.
-
-20090606:
- AFFECTS: users of java/eclipse
- AUTHOR: glewis@FreeBSD.org

- japanese/ipa-ttfonts -> japanese/font-mplus-ipa
- japanese/ipa-ttfonts -> japanese/font-ipa
- japanese/kochi-ttfonts -> japanese/font-kochi
- japanese/mplusfonts -> japanese/font-mplus
- japanese/sazanami-ttf -> japanese/font-sazanami
- japanese/shinonome -> japanese/font-shinonome
- japanese/umefont -> japanese/font-ume
- japanese/vlgothic -> japanese/font-vlgothic
-
- While basically these are port name changes for consistency,
- installation directories are also changed:
-
- font files -> ${PREFIX}/share/${PORTNAME}/*
- symlinks -> ${PREFIX}/share/fonts/{TTF,OTF,fontname,...}/*
- symlinks -> ${PREFIX}/lib/X11/fonts/{TTF,OTF,misc,fontname,...}/*
-
- A user-visible one is that the directory name "TrueType" is replaced
- with "TTF".
-
- Also, japanese/font-std and chinese/font-std have been added as
- standard fonts used in the Ports Collection. Currently they
- contain:
-
- std.ja_JP/Mincho
- std.ja_JP/Gothic
- std.ja_JP/Ryumin-Light
- std.ja_JP/GothicBBB-Medium
- std.zh_CN/STHeiti-Regular
- std.zh_CN/STSong-Light
- std.zh_CN/MSung-Light
- std.zh_CN/MHei-Medium
-
- under ${PREFIX}/share/fonts/. They are just symlinks to
- corresponding font files. The symlink names are based on popular
- PostScript font names.
-
- Applications should refer the font files via XLFD or fontconfig
- first. If they need a direct reference to the font file, please use
- files in std.*/*. This is because direct reference to a specific
- font name in an application configuration file makes the maintenance
- difficult when the font file name is changed, for example.

-
- $ sqlite oldstore.db .dump | sqlite3 newstore.db
-
- This assumes that you have both SQLite2 and SQLite3 installed on your

- AUTHOR: stas@FreeBSD.org
-
- FreeBSD libusb20 was renamed to libusb in r189585 and thus, being fully
- compatible with libusb20, replaces devel/libusb on HEAD. devel/libusb
- should not be used on these systems. Users of libusb-dependent ports
- are advised to remove libusb package from their systems, and rebuild all
- libusb dependencies. One of the possible ways to achieve this is
- listed below:
-
- # set tempfile=`mktemp /tmp/usbports.XX`
- # pkg_info -qR /var/db/pkg/libusb-* > ${tempfile}
- # pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/libusb-*

- AFFECTS: users of x11-wm/xfce4
- AUTHOR: oliver@FreeBSD.org
-
- When upgrading from Xfce 4.4 to 4.6 make sure you uninstall the following
- ports:
-
- x11/libxfce4mcs
- sysutils/xfce4-mcs-manager
- sysutils/xfce4-mcs-plugins
- x11-themes/xfce4-icon-theme
-
- You may uninstall them before you start the upgrade procedure (preferred)
- or even afterwards when the upgrade went fine.
-
- Please also note that Xfce 4.6 does not come with an icon theme any more.
- Xfce 4.6 now depends on the Tango theme which is now installed by default.
- The default installation of Xfce is also adjusted to use this icon theme
- instead of the Xfce 4.4 standard Rodent theme. If you are upgrading from
- Xfce 4.4 to 4.6 you probably still have the Rodent theme selected. This
- will lead to several "missing" icons when starting up Xfce.
-
- Make sure to switch as well to the Tango theme. To do this just open the
- Settings Manager and select Appearance. Inside the Appearance dialog
- switch to the Icons tab and select the "Tango" entry in the list on the
- left side of the Icons tab.
-
- For enabling the Reboot/Shutdown functionality of Xfce's logout dialog
- please read the note which gets printed out after the installation of
- x11-wm/xfce4 about how to configure PolicyKit.

- allowed inclusion of scripts with relative path names, e.g.
- "../../../my/script/dir/myscript.php".
-
- If the script path name is hard-coded into the application and is not

- For certain installations, the following steps should be performed
- after the CodeIgniter 1.7.0 upgrade (taken from:
- http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/installation/upgrade_170.html).
-
- >>> Update your Session Table
-
- If you are using the Session class in your application, AND if you
- are storing session data to a database, you must add a new column
- named user_data to your session table. Here is an example of what
- this column might look like for MySQL:
-
- user_data text NOT NULL
-
- To add this column you will run a query similar to this:
-
- ALTER TABLE `ci_sessions` ADD `user_data` text NOT NULL
-
- You'll find more information regarding the new Session functionality
- in the Session class page:
-
- http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html
-
- >>> Update your Validation Syntax
-
- This is an optional, but recommended step, for people currently
- using the Validation class. CI 1.7 introduces a new Form Validation
- class (http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/form_validation.html)
- which deprecates the old Validation library. We have left the old one
- in place so that existing applications that use it will not break, but
- you are encouraged to migrate to the new version as soon as possible.
- Please read the user guide carefully as the new library works a little
- differently, and has several new features.

- AFFECTS: users of security/logcheck
- AUTHOR: glarkin@FreeBSD.org
-
- logcheck now stores its configuration files in /usr/local/etc/logcheck
- instead of /usr/local/etc. If you are upgrading the port from version
- 1.1.1 to version 1.2.54, copy the following files to a temporary location,
- in case they are removed during the upgrade:
-
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck.hacking
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck.ignore
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck.violations
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck.violations.ignore
-
- e.g.:
-
- cd /usr/local/etc
- mkdir /tmp/logcheck.saveconf
- cp logcheck.hacking logcheck.ignore logcheck.violations* \
- /tmp/logcheck.saveconf
-
- After the upgrade, integrate your local changes to the files listed
- above into the new configuration files found in the following directories:
-
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck/cracking.d
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation
- /usr/local/etc/logcheck/violations.d

- logcheck rules and reporting levels:
-
- /usr/local/share/doc/logcheck/README.logcheck
- /usr/local/share/doc/logcheck/README.logcheck-database
-
- Also note that the upgraded port installs a crontab file for user
- "logcheck" that executes the logcheck script every hour and emails
- the results to root. If the installation process cannot install
- the crontab file, it can be installed manually from
- /usr/local/share/examples/logcheck/crontab.in, e.g.:

- AFFECTS: users of net/freeradius2
- AUTHOR: David Wood <david@wood2.org.uk>
-
- Upgrading the FreeRADIUS port used to replace all unmodified files
- in your configuration with the latest version from the sample
- configuration. This strategy has two disadvantages; over time your
- configuration became based on different versions of the sample
- configuration, also major changes to the sample configuration could
- leave your configuration in a confusing state.
-
- From version 2.0.5, your configuration is not touched if any
- configuration files have been modified.
-
- You are recommended to track changes in the sample configuration and
- keep your configuration in a version control system. I use Subversion
- (see the devel/subversion port) to track my changes. Keeping the sample
- configuration in a 'vendor branch' (see the Subversion book for more
- details) allows easy merging of changes from the sample configuration.
-
- *** IMPORTANT ***
-
- You are urged to move your configuration out of the default location
- (/usr/local/etc/raddb) before upgrading from 2.0.4 (or earlier)
- to 2.0.5 (or later). Once this upgrade is complete, remove the sample
- configuration that has been installed in the default location and
- move your configuration back to the default location.
-
- This is a one time procedure that will prevent unmodified files in
- your configuration from being deleted from your configuration and not
- restored during the upgrade. No customised files will be lost in any
- circumstances.
-
- The sample configuration in 2.0.5 has been reorganised: the
- configuration of most modules is now in the modules directory rather
- than in radiusd.conf. You are urged to rearrange your configuration
- to match this layout.
-
- There are several improvements in this version of the port, including
- a new pkg-message that will help new FreeRADIUS users to get started
- with the port, also new 'reload' and 'debug' commands for the rc.d
- script. Enjoy!

-
- www/squid has been updated to Squid 2.7.STABLE3.
-
- The update should be rather straightforward.
-
- The only noticeable change in the port is that the ICAP patch is no
- longer included; this is because this patch was unmaintained for a long
- time and its use was not really recommended. Please consider moving to
- Squid-3 (currently available as www/squid30) if you need ICAP support.

- AFFECTS: users of devel/gettext (i.e.: YOU)
- AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org
-
- As a result of the upgrade to gettext-0.17, the shared library version
- of libintl has changed, so you will need to rebuild all ports that
- depend on gettext:
-
- # portupgrade -rf gettext
- # portmaster -r gettext
-
- Given the scope and sheer number of dependent ports, it may be more
- advisable to simply blow away all existing install ports (after
- keeping any local configuration changes), and rebuilding from scratch.

- AFFECTS: users of security/amavisd-new
- AUTHOR: scheidell@secnap.net
-
- Amavisd-new 2.6.0 introduces several incompatibilities with prior versions.
- If you are upgrading from 2.5.4 or earlier, you will need to update your
- SQL schema. If you have third party programs that access SQL tables, you
- will need to update those also.
-
- COMPATIBILITY WITH 2.5.4:
-
- - when using SQL for logging (e.g. for a pen pals feature) or for
- quarantining, SQL tables maddr, msgs, msgrcpt and quarantine need
- to be extended by a new field 'partition_tag'; see below for details;
-
- - when SQL logging (pen pals) or SQL lookups are used, one can choose a
- binary or a character data type for fields users.email, mailaddr.email,
- and maddr.email; now may be a good opportunity to change a data type
- to binary (string of bytes); see below for details;
-
- - when using SQL for logging, a default for $sql_clause{'upd_msg'}
- has changed, so if a configuration file replaces this SQL clause
- by a non-default setting, it needs to be updated;
-
- Full information in /usr/local/share/doc/amavisd-new/RELEASE_NOTES.

- AFFECTS: users of net/freeradius
- AUTHOR: David Wood <david@wood2.org.uk>
-
- FreeRADIUS 2.0 is now available as the net/freeradius2 port. All FreeRADIUS
- users are advised to consider upgrading to 2.0. It is the FreeRADIUS team's
- intention to put the 1.x server into 'maintenance' mode with just critical
- bug fixes.[1] 2.0 has many improvements including numerous bug fixes that
- were too difficult for the 1.x server, as well as many new features.
-
- Before uninstalling 1.x, it is recommended that you backup your
- configuration, which is typically in /usr/local/etc/raddb, then move it
- out of the way. It is also worth backing up the default configuration,
- which is typically in /usr/local/share/examples/freeradius/raddb.
-
- 1.x configurations should work with the 2.0 server [2]. However the port
- automatically upgrades any unedited files in the configuration when you
- install a new version of FreeRADIUS. Installing 2.0 with the residue of a
- 1.x configuration in the default location will result in a mixed 1.x and
- 2.0 configuration that may not work.
-
- The recommended approach is to diff your 1.x configuration against the
- default 1.x configuration, then make corresponding changes to a copy
- of the default 2.0 configuration. If you moved your 1.x configuration out
- of the way before upgrading, you will have a 2.0 configuration ready to
- edit in the default location. It is worth reading man 5 unlang for details
- of the new FreeRADIUS 'un-language' before starting.
-
- Alternatively, you can move your 1.x configuration to another location,
- such as /usr/local/etc/raddb_v1, then edit /etc/rc.conf to point the rc.d
- script to that location. For example:
-
- radiusd_flags="-d /usr/local/etc/raddb_v1"
-
- I cannot guarantee that all 1.x configurations will work with the 2.0
- server, and I only recommend using a 1.x configuration as an interim
- measure.
